Her web series "Dominos" (2018-2020), broadcast on TV5/Unis and Tou, was her first success. The two seasons traveled around the world and won several awards, including the trophy for Best Digital Series at Canneseries. Zoé followed this up with her first short, "Lune" (2020), presented in competition at the prestigious Clermont-Ferrand festival, and then selected in more than thirty international festivals. The film won five awards and numerous mentions for the touching performance of its lead actress, Joanie Martel. It was also nominated for the Iris for best short film at the Gala du Cinéma Québécois.

In 2022, she will release two new shorts, Atlantis and Gaby les collines. Her works all carry her very personal signature: sharp dialogue, an intoxicating visual universe and an undeniable love for human beings.
